CHERRY POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch tube pan. Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and almond extract. Beat in the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Dredge cherries in 1/4 cup flour, then fold into batter. Spread into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

CHERRY CAKE RECIPE (ONLY 4 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• Roll out your puff pastry. Slice into 3-inch wide strips.
• Drain the syrup out of the cherries. Place cherries tightly next to each other on the piece of dough. Pinch the edges together to seal the cherries inside, making sure that none of the juice seeps out.
• Line two 8-inch baking pans with parchment paper. Wind the pieces of dough around one another, spiraling until you get a circular cake.
• Bake at 400°F for 25 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown. If the cherries come out, that's fine, they will eventually be covered by cream. Remove the cake from the baking pan and let it cool on a wire rack.
• Place dulce de leche into a mixing bowl and add very cold heavy cream. Beat on medium-high until you get stiff peaks.
• Place a bit of cream on your serving plate. Top with first cake layer.
• Add more cream and spread it evenly. Top it off with a second layer.
• Decorate the cake with remaining cream and leftover cherries as you like. Place the cake in a sealed container and let it set in a fridge overnight.

MOM'S SHERRY CAKE

Steps:

• (This recipe has three separate portions to combine together: the cake, the cinnamon mixture, and the frosting.) Combine cake ingredients and mix for 5 minutes in mixer on medium speed.
• Combine cinnamon mixture.
• Butter the sides and bottom of Bundt or angel food tin.
• Sprinkle part of cinnamon mixture into pan covering sides and bottom.
• Then pour cake batter into pan in three alternating layers with cinnamon mixture, ending with cinnamon mixture.
• Bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes, checking to make sure the sugar on the outside of the cake does not burn.
• Let cool; place on serving plate.
• Mix together powdered sugar and enough milk to make a "drizzly" consistency of frosting, then drizzle over the sides (both inside and outsides).
• Let frosting set before serving.
• Note: if your oven runs hot, you might want to try baking for 35 minutes to begin with, then remove cake from oven and taste-check a portion of the cake which doesn't show easily (such as the inner ring) to make sure the sugar coating isn't burning and the cake isn't drying out.
